Based on a revision of the common task understanding in model-based approaches a formal meta model is proposed which allows more expressive task descriptions. A task is considered ...
Incidents such as Solar Sunrise and Nimda demonstrate the need to expressively model distributed and complex network attacks. To protect information systems, system administrators...
We present a performance-oriented refinement approach that refines a perfectly synchronous communication model onto Network-on-Chip (NoC) communication. We first identify four bas...
Abstract. In 2005, Gordon and Walton presented initial ideas for a computational model of defeasible argument [12, 26], which builds on and elaborates Walton's theory of argum...
There is a growing recognition of the need to apply formal mathematical methods in the design of \high con dence" computing systems. Such systems operate in safety critical co...
